The four-year-old Excellent (trainer D Todywalla), who posted a wire-to-wire victory in his last start over the mile trip, may be expected by the betting market to blaze the track in the hands of A Sandesh over this shorter trip
The feature of Saturday's six-race evening card is the class I event, the Seth Ramnath Daga Trophy, to be run over the trip of six furlongs. The four-year-old Excellent (trainer D Todywalla), who posted a wire-to-wire victory in his last start over the mile trip, may be expected by the betting market to blaze the track in the hands of A Sandesh over this shorter trip. But Gazino, the Nosher Cama-trained five-year-old (Trevor Patel up) is unlikely to let him win without having to work up sweat. I expect Gazino to catch the judge's eye first.
